Nice timing with the cat. Did you see the cat and quickly shoot? Or set up the scene and wait for the cat to walk past? I once met a chicken walking around on a side walk and found that I could get him to walk one or the other because he was wary of me. I decided my background, focused, and then moved back and forth until the chicken walked into the place I wanted him.

Cats, of course, are far less predictable than chickens! I was thinking about shooting the scene anyway because I liked the way the shadows fell on the wall. As I was aiming for the shot, I saw the cat enter the frame and then I waited for him to get to a gap between the shadows. Luck and preparation combined, as is often the case.
